Creating a Google AdSense account involves a few steps. Here's a guide to help you set up your account:
Step 1: Prepare Your Website or YouTube Channel
- Own a website or YouTube channel: You must have content that complies with Google's AdSense policies.
- Content requirements:
- Your site or channel should have original, quality content.
- It should have sufficient content (ideally several posts or videos).
- Your site or channel must comply with AdSense policies, including Google’s content and age restrictions.
Step 2: Sign Up for AdSense
- Go to the AdSense website: Google AdSense
- Click "Get Started".
- Sign in with your Google account:
- If you don’t have a Google account, create one.
- Enter your website URL (if applicable).
- If you’re monetizing a YouTube channel, this will be linked automatically through YouTube Studio.
- Provide your payment information:
- Enter your name, country, and billing address.
Step 3: Verify Your Website
- Add AdSense code:
- Google will provide a snippet of code that you need to add to your website.
- Paste this code into the
<head>section of your site’s HTML. - For platforms like WordPress, you can use a plugin to add the code easily.
- Verification:
- Google will review your website to ensure it complies with AdSense policies.
Step 4: Wait for Approval
- Approval process:
- This can take a few days or longer.
- Google will notify you via email once your account is approved.
Step 5: Set Up Ad Units and Start Earning
- Once approved, log in to AdSense.
- Create ad units:
- Choose ad formats (e.g., display ads, in-feed ads).
- Customize their appearance to match your website.
- Place ad codes on your site or enable auto-ads.
- Start earning as visitors interact with your ads.
Tips:
- Ensure compliance with all AdSense policies to avoid account suspension.
- Drive quality traffic to your site or channel to maximize earnings.
If you’re monetizing a YouTube channel, make sure your channel meets the YouTube Partner Program (YPP) eligibility requirements (1,000 subscribers and 4,000 watch hours).
